Buy Tents
When you buy tents for outdoor adventures, your tent becomes your home-away-from-home, whether it’s a compact bivy or a spacious family cabin tent. Choosing the right shelter is crucial for the activities you’ll be doing. Whether you're looking to buy camping shelters for quick getaways or extended trips, you'll find the perfect fit.
Where will you go?
Larger, heavier camping shelters are ideal for car camping, providing plenty of room for 4+ people at great prices. Some models, like Napier’s, attach directly to your vehicle’s hatchback or fit onto pickup truck beds. When you need to buy tents for backpacking, where low weight and durability matter most, you’ll want to invest in something more compact. Ultralight backpackers often choose bivy sacks, while groups may opt for a 3-person tent to share the load.
The right tent for the right season
If you’re looking to buy camping shelters for 3-season use, tents with large mesh windows and waterproof rainflies are ideal. These allow for good airflow, reduce condensation, and offer the option to stargaze on clear nights. For harsher conditions, 4-season tents with zippable solid panels keep out snow and add warmth, though they tend to be heavier.
Single wall or rainfly?
Weight-conscious backpackers often buy tents like Black Diamond’s Ahwahnee, a waterproof/breathable single-wall tent. These tents feature interior poles for easy setup in storms. Floorless tarp tents, such as Black Diamond’s Mega Light, are another ultralight option, using trekking poles for support rather than tent poles.
Whether you're seeking lightweight options for backpacking or durable family-sized setups for car camping, our wide selection of camping shelters ensures that you'll find the right fit for any adventure.
